Original text and translations
Latin text
Veni in hortum, soror mea,
sponsa immaculata mea
et speciosa mea.
Veni, noli tardare,
flores apparuerunt in terra nostra,
floruerunt vites.
Italian text
Dicea Dameta a Cloride piangendo
non sai che tu mi struggi
ben mio quando mi fuggi
e che bear mi puoi con un sol guardo
de' begli occhi tuoi,
con gli occhi tuoi
English translation
(Translation of the Latin)
I came into the garden, my sister, my spouse,
my undefiled, my beautiful one.
Come, make no delay.
The flowers have appeared in our land,
The vines have blossomed.
